Pixel Art Details

it has been October 2014 since I uploaded the last new personal character concept.

So basically Tower 57 got in the way, now as the game is nearly done I had some time to pursue this passion stuff a bit more, which means another illustration – This one depicts an old chief police officer.

21 colors for the sprite + background color + transparency

This time I kept the explanation is for the sake of correct grammar, a much bigger vocabulary and general felicity and sentence structure in my native language German, I haven‘t even tried to translate it – but if someone who is a native English speakerand could get it right wants to try it, jukst contact me.

Boils down to practice mostly, making small sprites doesnt really provide a good challenge.

For those artworks it's all about the artistic approach on a conceptual level about what kind of character it is and why he looks that way. I feel like there is a certain quality to stuff, which is thought through and rather follows the rule of elegance and believability instead the "rule of cool" - it's also a detailled illustration, so I guess it's concept illustration.
